There is no smoke without fire and the recent pub licity given to teenage terrors gives cause for some grave concern Not just here in Newmarket but all over North America Is it a sign of the times we live in and an evil to be endured or does it prove neglect by someone At whose door should the blame be laid for the increase in juvenile delinquency Can some of their actions be dismissed as youthful high spirits or are they manifestations of something more sinister It is easy to denounce the actions of the more ex treme among them and blame their parents but would that be fair or even true We must presume that the parents of a hoy caught pilfering in a store or using bad language in public will be saddened and hurt by their sons actions Though they themselves may have been an outstanding good example and sincerely believed their boy had learned common sense and decency this in itself is all too often not enough and there is a long time of regret after one foolish act What then is this intangible this power and force which makes a youth respect and honor bis parents The phrase itself is old fashioned and square but its meaning is clear Nobody really likes to be told how to handle his own child it leaves a nasty taste in the and a strong feeling of resentment however it would seem we arc all to blame Society cannot shrug off an Indi viduals problem hut must accept it as its own failing Perhaps we are making a big issue out of nothing We were all young once and undoubtedly did things we prefer to forget now We all remember whooping it up at the local dance and maybe having one too many and afterwards staggering home But not the difference we usually walked on our own two feet We couldnt afford a car and didnt have control of lethal horse power under a hood Today that commonplace ml disaster for all concerned A boisterous lad of yester day can be on a manslaughter charge today and it it not difficult to en visage the headline- or judge the im pression it gives of todays youth By no means let us smooth over or dismiss this lightly but nonetheless he is a victim of ami a situation of a modern world Jt is evident that with progress we need protec tion ist believe that the teenagers of today an inherently just as good or just as bad as their parent were unfortunately the economics now make it much easier for them to make a splash when they let off steam At the present time they have more everything except sadly parental control Dads tire after a days work he likes his television program am bowling in the evening Mom has probably been work ing too Indignantly they would argue that they an working so hard to provide their with a home Hut no one is ever In it All is not lost however most things have a knack of working themselves out and wo can be thank ful for the phenomena that changed the teenager of years ago into the worried patent of today and by same token will also see the teenage tenors of the worried parents hence Lets see how the handle that ITS TIME WE CLEANED HOUSE I he Tribune The continuous parade of youths before the Magistrate at Newmarket is to cause raised eyebrows in court circles has been some criticism of this practice locally p I n ably due dents the the fact tint light vroug impression of our local teenage agree with this argument We feel forccmenl is to have any meaning id and aired in court whether the list offender or one dozen Which is bell it is still in the old black stage or lines such as occurred recently in the town of Newmar ket The latter we would judge as being bad publicity for any municipality has not yet reached these proportions and we hope it never will Ab In Newmarket in many of the local offenders are nonresidents A number are repeat- performers Early apprehension of these young lads will in the long run be of assistance to the youths and to the town If the appearance of teenage in Magistrates Court tends to give a bad name what indeed will the end result be if theyre not appre hended We feel that the local Police should have a free hand in such matters If this is not the case then the free hand might well be wielded in a more shameful and unruly manner SUPPORT THE WINTER EMPLOYMENT CAMPAIGN It is sometimes useful to remind ourselves that our community is not really made up of streets houses and business buildings it is made up of people You and I are the community In our society this is espe cially true in the economic sense We all depend on one another to some extent economically and all of our economic activity such as the buying and selling of goods and services has a direct bearing on the welfare of our community and the people in it Each winter partly because of cold weather and partly because of habit eionomic activity in this com munity slows down and some of our wage earners join the ranks of the unemployed This fact is well known However what is not always recognized is that when wage earners arc unemployed and unable to make their normal economic contribution the whole community suffers Now what can you as an individual do about As a cm arrange to have all types of inside work such as renovation repair and other maintenance work around your home includ ing dry cleaning done during the winter months As a member of a organisation you can recommend that your company should have your construction and maintenance work of all kinds done in the winter As a member of a business you can also en courage the use of annual vacations during the off season the production and stock piling of standard pro ducts in the winter months special campaigns and dis counts to encourage winter work and the training of personnel in winter instead of summer As a member of a community organization you can urge your group to schedule am construction with which it may be concerned and any oilier type of work for the winter months and influence others to do likewise these are some of the things you can do and we think will agree that it is to your advantage to do them in the winter Skilled tradesmen not so rushed in the mouths often offeied In fir often do I HUMBLE PIE ANYONE titer the ruction kept at a light pranks were hold up
